My key layout

1: Attack
2: Backstab
3: Evade Macro
4: Assist Macro
5: Hide
6: Sneak
7: Bind Wound / Mrylokar BP
8: Range Attack
9: Duelist
10: Clicky slot

--------

Evade Macro

/at off
/do 1 (assuming 1 is hide)
/at on

Shouldn't be much more complicated than that. Stop attack, hide, start attack. In between hide and start, you can also add skills like pickpocket and disarm without screwing up the macro. Can be useful for training.

Assist Macro

/assist tankname

Change the name on this macro whenever you get a new tank / MA. Again, make sure you have at some point (only have to do it once) typed /assist off. Keeps you from breaking mezzes while your tank decides on a target. Otherwise, the game defaults you to autoattacking with an assist.

Thanks for sharing this, Cecily. This is pretty much what I use with my rogue as well, though I have an "Incoming" key for pulling instead of "Duelist" because I'm not that high yet [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In my Evade key, I also add a "Sense Traps" doability in there to try to level it up
a bit. As you said, there are probably some other abilities you can stash in there. Also, I don't turn attack back on as I find I start getting aggro again right away
sometimes, so I wait a few seconds then manually attack again.
